[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This photo was taken on 28th of August at 3:43 a.m. Pacific time. This is one of many photos taken in a 3 hour period. Because of very low light during the full eclipse, and I can only get maximum f8 due to add on of 1.4 T-Con, ISO had to be set at 1600 to keep shutter speed around 1-2 seconds to minimize motion blur of the moon.
This is the actual color of the moon at full eclipse. Slight usm, contrast adjustment and cropped. Thanks for looking.

Hello Wing! Marvelous picture. Good capture. Greetings from moon.

Nice capture of the moon. I did a WS to reduce the noice of the BG. Hope you like it.

Very beautiful capture. It's a bit noisy, but that's easy to overlook when one looks at the big picture. (No pun intended) I like the composition, the contrast of the bright moon against the dark sky, with the light of the stars to add even more contrast. Very nicely done.

Hello, Wing!
Very beautiful picture! Natural moon and amazing stars! TFS.

Beautiful eye for detail. The contrasting color of the moon and background is amazing.
